Alex keath type is exactly what we need

He's kicking bags of goals at local level ATM
Bring him back

 

[Smiley Boy]

You should drop this nugget over there. They seem to like your info.

Unfortunately im banned from their board haha

Under Eade we couldn't win a flag without a gun KPF. Now we can't win a flag without a gun KPD / better defence.

Man what I'd give to inject a fit Morris and Lake from 15 years ago into our current team. Even with a below average coaching team you'd think we'd be half way there to a flag.

 

[AFDogs]

Here's an idea.

Let's just get May AND Silvagni. I don't even care if May doesn't pass the dickhead policy anymore. A dickhead or two is needed in every club.

 

[Norm De Guerre]

Unfortunately im banned from their board haha

Maybe I'll do it on your behalf.

Of course. I will give you full credit.

To do anything else wouldn't feel right.

They'll love it.

 

[Bulldoge]

Leek Aleer is dog shit and Noah Balta is a dickhead

Tell us what you really think

 

[Bulldogs85]

Riley Beverage said on Gettable that he thinks we are ahead in the Silvagni chase

May isn't a dickhead, he's a cancer, and we are already trying to remove JUH. Totally get you we are desperate but not that desperate. There HAS to be other options. Bev is really good at finding roles for delisted talents.....

edit: I actually have a bit of faith in Coffield and Gardner contributing next year

Be interesting to see if it’s announced soon after GC wins.

We seem like a club who wouldn’t want it announced before the season is officially over.

If it doesn’t come out soon, I assume he’ll be going Pies.

 

[geoffjennings79]

Mods, can we just ban everyone that suggests recruiting May?

And no, this time I'm not joking.

FMD, he'll be 34 for starters, has struggled onfield, let alone his off field pattern of behaviour.

We'd get more out of current day Brian Lake

kept himself reasonably fit post retirement? Would he consider coming back for 1-2 seasons as a stop gap for us with a coaching role after that?

I'd prefer Rance.

Jack did say yesterday that it would all come out in the next couple of days.

Well Beverage was confident that it was Collingwood a few weeks ago guess we will find out soon.

I think we’re diluting the term dickhead at this point. I like a Rhylee West style dickhead. May isn’t even a dickhead he’s a ****wit who shouldn’t be anywhere near our club.

May is a dog campaigner.

 

[Chops]

Brian Lake was also just a bit of a ****wit on the piss May publicly berated his captain earlier this year who’s been carrying the team for the past decade

Lake a F wit according McCartney says enough and F wit outside footy.

 

[scooter600x]

Has anyone checked if Herb Henderson is actually dead?

 

[SPower]

Let's get serious and bring back John Hoiles,Ray Walker and John Jillard.

 

[Norm De Guerre]

If we do indeed land Silvani, it'll go down as one of the dumbest trades in the clubs history.

Right up there with Jade Rawlings

where the club felt backed into a corner and overpaid for an overhyped mediocre player with history of injuries.

I suspect Collingwood will laugh their arses off if we go down this road.

Make no mistake. This isn't about a player being disgruntled and feeling unloved at his current club. As his management would have us believe. Its about a player looking for a sucker to take on one last big contract.

Think about it. Carlton have just lost TDK have plenty of cap space, yet they aren't willing to pony up for one last contract for Silvani.

What's that tell you?

 

[W W Biscuit]

Has anyone checked if Herb Henderson is actually dead?

Sadly, yes. He'd have been 94 if still alive...in my view, still young enough to coax out of retirement.

 

[scooter600x]

Still preferable to Steven May

 

[VitalDread]

If JSOS picks up

Depending on the coin
The compo pick can be used to trade for Buku

 

[SPower]

I just read John Hoiles is still with us at 87.
He was a Blacksmith so he may give us the hard edge we need.!
Slowly getting over the Sunday gutted feeling.
Reinforces our deficiencies so pls get this sorted which we have known about since 2021.

I can't see how it can be worse than Jackson Trengove or Tim O'Brien, very similar FA recruits as talls from other clubs who got nowhere near playing well enough to justify their contracts
